Primary | Percent Change From Baseline in Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) - Treatment Phase | LDL-C levels were measured at baseline and week 52 (or at discontinuation) using a beta quantification method. The Treatment Phase was the period from the date of the participant's first dose of study treatment (randomization visit, Visit 3) to the participant's last visit on treatment (discontinuation visit or Visit 8 [Week 52]). | Baseline and Week 52 | |
Primary | Percentage of Participants With Any Adverse Event - Treatment Phase | An adverse event (AE) or experience was any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure (signs), function (symptoms), or chemistry (laboratory data) of the body temporally associated with any use of a study treatment, whether or not considered related to the use of the study treatment. Any worsening of a preexisting condition which was temporally associated with the use of the study treatment is also an AE. The percentage of participants with any adverse event during the treatment phase is presented. | Up to 52 weeks | |
Primary | Percentage of Participants With Any Treatment-Related Adverse Event - Treatment Phase | An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study treatment, whether or not considered related to the use of the treatment. Any worsening of a preexisting condition which was temporally associated with the use of the study treatment was also an AE. AEs reported by the investigator as definitely, probably or possibly related to study treatment were considered treatment-related. The percentage of participants with any treatment-related adverse event during the treatment phase is presented. | Up to 52 weeks | |
Primary | Percentage of Participants With Any Serious Adverse Event - Treatment Phase | A serious adverse experience (SAE) was any adverse event that occurred at any dose that resulted in death or was life threatening, resulted in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, resulted in or prolonged an existing inpatient hospitalization, or was a congenital anomaly/birth defect. The percentage of participants with any serious adverse event during the treatment phase is presented. | Up to 52 weeks | |
Primary | Percentage of Participants Discontinuing Study Treatment Due to an Adverse Event - Treatment Phase | An adverse event (AE) was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study treatment, whether or not considered related to the use of the drug. Any worsening of a preexisting condition which was temporally associated with the use of the study drug was also an AE. The percentage of participants who discontinued study treatment due to an AE during the treatment phase is presented. | Up to 52 weeks | |
Primary | Percentage of Participants With Changes in Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) >= 10 mm Hg | Participants had SBP assessed at baseline and throughout the 52-week treatment period. Percentage of participants who had a SBP reading that was >= 10 mm Hg higher than their baseline SBP for any assessment performed during the treatment phase is presented. | Up to 52 weeks | |
Primary | Percentage of Participants With Changes in SBP >= 15 mm Hg | Participants had SBP assessed at baseline and throughout the 52-week treatment period. The percentage of participants who had a SBP reading that was >= 15 mm Hg higher than their baseline SBP for any assessment performed during the treatment phase is presented. | Up to 52 weeks | |
Primary | Percentage of Participants With Changes in Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) >= 10 mm Hg | Participants had DBP assessed at baseline and throughout the 52-week treatment period. The percentage of participants who had a DBP reading that was >= 10 mm Hg higher than their baseline DBP for any assessment performed during the treatment phase is presented. | Up to 52 weeks | |
